Application filed September 22,1930.

Our-invention relates to an auxiliary ap ect of our inventionkis the 1 o provision of a device ofthis character which is compara'tlvely. simple and lIlQXPQIlSlVQ,

to allow a W1I1d; ing abouta stick while" a spring controlled;

apart of the arms a leaf spring tending to clamp the hair between objects and advantages of, our inventlon will become more fullyknown as the description thereof proceeds Serial No. 483,527.

Fig. 8' shows in. top elevation a 're-in-Q forcedywave, inset. 1 I -;As illustrated, our novel and improved hairwinding combing,stretching and tying device according j to our invention consists of aiblock 10 having a bore in the direction ofits longitudinal axis for the reception of thefrod 11 about'which-the hair is to be wound, and which is heldv within the block by me'ans of; a leaf spring 12 pressing: v

against'said rodthrough'an opening 18 1n the top of body 10 with one of its ends .whileits. other end is attached to block'10 by means of the screwsrl forthe like. One end of the rod lljis preferably forked, as at 15 to allow a tying of the end of "the; hair formed into a, wave,, while the. other end is reduced, as at 16. z 1 I p T0 he lower face ofbody 10'an arm17 of a 'bracket is attached,- to the innerendj of which pivotally secured, as at 18, they other arm '19 of said bracket, and a semi circular; spring band 20 engages with its f ends in recesses formed inthearmsnear go their outer ends for limitingthe v outward:

movement of said arms.

The 'arm17 has its inner end angularly bent,- and supporting a table or guide 21.

for the/ hair while a funnelfl22- having 11a; wide lower mouth and a comparatively small upper mouth is. integrally made 'withgthe table andarm'17 and arrangedsomewhat inclinedfthereto, for the purposeof allow- ,7

ing the introduction of ribbon or band 90": 23., which is preferably provided with metal reinforcements 24," as, shown in Figure 8, to"

' be insertedfbetween the hair." A bar 25 is jattachedto oneside of the'guide table 21 1 9,51

andcarries at its other end a comb 26.

The arm 19 hasits inner end curvedand formed intoa rubber mounted roller 27, ,and-ij.

I acurved arm 28 attached to arm'19 carries; 1

a holder plate 29. 7 Arm 17 and 19 are spread 1 apart by means of a lever .30 pivoted inter- A mediate its forked ends to arm 17 and having near its outer forked end a pin 31 bearlng against the edge of arm 19 so as to spread I the arms 17, 19, apart if lever 30 is turned about its pivot 32 by means of the handle 33.

A looped spring 34 has one of its ends secured to the upper face of block 10 while its other end bears against the lower face of a lever 35 pivoted intermediate its ends, as at 36 to a bracket on body 10 and bearing with its inner end 37 against the hair curl 88 as shown in Figure 1.

The device operates as follows:

A supply of hair 39 (Fig. 4) is guided through comb 26 over the outer face of funnel 22, and table 21, and if then the arms, which were spread apart before, are carried together by means of the proper operation of lever 30 and its handle 33, the roller 27 will firmly but mo-vably guide the hair and flatten the same so that it can now be tightly wound about rod 11 with the paper 23 wound in between so as to produce a perfectly flat, smooth wave, the end of which is secured by means of a lever 40 between the prongs of the fork 15. i

The end 37 of lever 35 keeps the hair smooth. The hair 39 passing through comb- 26 is thereby combed and is then stretched between table 21 and roller 27 while plate 29 prevents its leaving the comb during the operation of the apparatus.

It will be understood that we have shown and described the preferred form of ourdevice only as one example of the manypossible ways to practically construct the same, and that we may make such changes in the general arrangement of and in the construction of its minor details as come within the scope of the appended claims without departure from the spirit of our invention and the principles involved.

Having thus described our invention, what we clalm as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

l. A device for winding, combing, stretching, and tying the hair comprising a holder block for the reception of a stick or upon which the hair is to 'be wound, a spring for holding said pin in said block,

a table and a roller for clamping the hair between them, a means for guiding said roller against said table with the hair between both, a comb, means for attaching said comb to the table, a means for holding and guiding the hair passing through the comb,

a spring controlled means for holding the hair flat and smooth upon said stick, a means for guiding paper between the hair during its winding upon said stick, and a means for tying the end of the hair to said stick. v

2. In a device of the class described, a clamping means for the hair, comprising a a pin 7 two armed lever, both arms of said lever pivotally connected at one of their ends, and having recesses or notches formed in their ends, a fiat open spring having its ends engaged in the recesses of the arms to press the arms together and for limiting their outward movement, a table on one arm, and a roller on the other arm, and an operating lever pivoted to one of said arms and having a forked end, a pin between the prongs of the fork to engage the other arm for allowing'a spreading of the same to allow the placing of the hair between said table, and roller to loosely clamp the same therebetween.

3. In a device of the class described, a holder for a stick upon which the hair is to be wound, and a spring controlled lever pivoted intermediate its ends to a bracket on said holder, one end of said lever engaging the hair wound or curled about said stick to keep it flat and smooth thereon.

4. In a device of the class described, a table for guiding the hair, a roller for clamping said hair to said table, a two-armed operating lever clamping said roller against said table, a comb, means for connecting said comb and table, a plate for holding said hair during its passage through the comb,'means connecting said plate to one arm of said lever, and means for feeding paper between the hair during the waving operation.
